I don't cheat because there's no point in cheating on a 12 year old game that I'm trying to enjoy and reap nostalgia from.

I never cheated back then and I most certainly wouldn't now. The whole point of playing on Project 1999 is because it's difficult and challenging. Removing or significantly reducing those challenges really defeats the point of playing here.
I also love how people bring up the fact that this is an emulation of a 12-year old game like that should mean anything. Yes the game is 12 years old and this is an emulation of that game. It is still quite challenging and great fun to play on it. Back in 1999 I had great fun and excitement because it was all new to everyone. Those were feeling which only happen once. Now I enjoy playing on Project1999 a lot because I am much less intense and love the challenges and teamwork needed to do well.

How bout some numbers? Something tangible that we can see like a summary of all penalties enforced after all is said and done.

IE:
Total Platz Deleted
Average Levels Lost

Would be very interesting to see how much of an impact these 3rd party programs had.

I already asked this and got the answer.. Here's the link.
Suspension Details

I never received a response to the question around total levels lost (I did ask earlier in that thread)

Half of you would have done it too if you been aware you could do it.

The other half of you didn't need to do it cause your "mate" on the other side of your teamspeak/chatbox did it for you.

See you in two weeks.

lol, cry.

I can't speak for anyone else, although I'd guess many people are similar... but I don't cheat for lack of know-how, or lack of time to do it, or even fear of getting banned. I don't cheat because it takes the enjoyment out of the game.

If you cheat why would you not just play the easy servers? Why bother playing p99 if not for the enjoyment of the game and feeling of accomplishment?

Good point - it's because the value of cheating is much higher when a lower % of the involved population is cheating. Cheaters like no one else to cheat so only they get the edge - which is rather amusing because if everyone is cheating, everyone gets bored and quits.

Cheaters are literally parasites.

Anybody with a search engine could obtain the programs for cheating. With the invention of the interwebs only one person really needs to know how to do something and share it with a community.
